Physicists Tailor Magnetic Pairings In Nanoscale Semiconductors
March 14, 2007 — Electrons love to zip around metals such as copper, especially if the metal is cooled to temperatures near absolute zero. But if they encounter a magnetic atom (say, iron) during their travels, the ... > full story -
Delicate Relation Between Single Spins: Scientists Measure The Magnetic Interaction Between Single Atoms
March 2, 2007 — Probing the magnetic interaction between single atoms is no longer a dream. Using a scanning tunnelling microscope, the interaction of the spins of two neighboring cobalt atoms adsorbed at a copper ... > full story -
New Graphene Transistor Promises Life After Death Of Silicon Chip
February 28, 2007 — Researchers have used the world's thinnest material to create the world's smallest transistor -- a breakthrough that could spark the development of a new type of super-fast computer ... > full story -
Scientist Discovers New Explanation For Pulsar's Spin
February 24, 2007 — A researcher at North Carolina State University has developed a three-dimensional computer model that shows how pulsars obtain their spin, which could lead to a greater understanding of the processes ... > full story -
Disorder May Be In Order For 'Spintronic' Devices
February 15, 2007 — Physicists at JILA are using ultrashort pulses of laser light to reveal precisely why some electrons, like ballet dancers, hold their spin positions better than others -- work that may help improve ... > full story -

Computer Scientists Discover New Way To Spin Up Pulsars
January 5, 2007 — A team of scientists using Oak Ridge National Laboratory supercomputers has discovered the first plausible explanation for a pulsar's spin that fits the observations made by ... > full story -
Researchers Predict A New State Of Matter In Semiconductors
December 15, 2006 — Conventional matter exists in three familiar forms-solid, liquid and gas. But under special circumstances, quantum theory predicts exotic states of matter, such as superconductors in which electrons ... > full story -
Seismic Wave Speed In The Lower Mantle
November 28, 2006 — Seismic wave speeds in Earth's lower mantle are governed by the elastic properties of the minerals ferropericlase and silicate perovskite. Therefore, knowing the velocity of sound though these ... > full story -
A Quantum (Computer) Step: Study Shows It's Feasible To Read Data Stored As Nuclear 'Spins'
November 20, 2006 — A University of Utah physicist took a step toward developing a superfast computer based on the weird reality of quantum physics by showing it is feasible to read data stored in the form of the ... > full story -
Molecular Spintronic Action Confirmed In Nanostructure
October 12, 2006 — Researchers at NIST have made the first confirmed "spintronic" device incorporating organic molecules, a potentially superior approach for innovative electronics that rely on the spin, and associated ... > full story
